Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1- Multiply the denominator by the whole number= 4×2=8
Step 2- Add the answer from Step 1 to the numerator = 8+3=11
Step 3- Write answer from Step 2 over the denominator = 11/4
Step 1 - Multiply the denominator by the whole number = 6×1=6
Step 2- Add the answer from Step 1 to the numerator= 6+4=10
Step 3- Write answer from Step 2 over the denominator = 10/6
Step 1-The fractions have unlike denominators. First, find the Least Common Denominator(LCM) and rewrite the fractions with the common denominator.
LCM of 4&6=12
Multiply both the numerator and denominator of each fraction by the number that makes its denominator equal the LCD. This is basically multiplying each fraction by 1.
(11/4×33)+(10/6×22)=?
Complete the multiplication and the equation becomes
33/12+20/12=?
The two fractions now have like denominators so you can add the numerators.
Then:
33/12+20/12=53/12
This fraction cannot be reduced.
The fraction
53/12
is the same as
53÷12
Convert to a mixed number using
long division for 53 ÷ 12 = 4R5, so
53/12=4 5/12
